  • COMP6845 Thursday 4pm Tutorial Rescheduled to Friday at 6 PM

    Posted by Rahat Masood Wednesday 19 June 2024, 02:54:28 PM.

    Dear COMP6845 Students,

    Lachlan is unavailable this Thursday at 4 PM to take his COMP6845 tutorial. Therefore, we have moved the tutorial to Friday at 6 PM. Students who are enrolled in the Thursday 4 PM tutorial should attend the Friday 6 PM tutorial for this week.

    I am in conversation with the teaching team to permanently move this tutorial to Friday since Lachlan is not available for the Thursday 4 PM class.

    If you have any issues, please don't hesitate to email us at cs6445@cse.unsw.edu.au .


    Rahat.

    Due to unexpected autopsy installation issues especially for those on Macs, we have extended the due date for week 3 challenges to Week 4 Wednesday 11.59 PM. This provides an additional 2 days.

    Posted by Nicholas Tandiono Friday 24 May 2024, 01:32:29 PM, last modified Friday 24 May 2024, 11:57:03 PM.

    Hi everyone! Welcome to Digital Forensics 😊

    Hope everyone is well rested after the Term 1 break and looking forward to another super interesting term. We are happy to announce a number of redeveloped areas of the course based on previous years’ feedback which is inclusive of the move from OpenLearning to WebCMS which have been implemented this term.

    We are going to be using three online systems for COMP6[84]45. These are (1) WebCMS, (2) Ed Forum, and (3) Moodle.

    WebCMS

    • WebCMS can be accessed here https://webcms3.cse.unsw.edu.au/COMP6445/24T2/
    • Please read through the Course Outline via the left-hand menu of WebCMS. It has everything in it that you need to know for now, including the assessment information, course schedule and so on.
    • WebCMS is also where you will find lecture and tutorial slides as well as investigation instructions for challenges and reports.

    Ed Forum

    Moodle (Will be made available at a later date)

    • Moodle is where you will submit your reports, with the first due at the end of Week 4.

    We have an amazing teaching team who are here to support you in any way possible and make the process of learning this course highly rewarding and engaging, so feel free to reach out to them if you have any concerns or issues. For any questions related to the course, please reach out to the class account cs6445@cse.unsw.edu.au – where the teaching team will also be able to help out with any queries you may have.
